Chapter 307
“Whether she comes or not doesn’t matter,” Samuel said, rolling his eyes.
Maisy sighed and moved closer to Kenny. “Kenny, don’t worry about Mom.”
“Yeah, she’ll be fine,” Kenny replied with a softened gaze as he looked at Maisy.
Skylar approached the Williamses, and their expressions changed the moment they
saw her.
Since she’d left home, Skylar had seemed more confident, but that confidence came with a cold indifference toward them. The warmth she’d once shown was now
replaced by a chilling distance.
Skylar glanced at the Williamses and then at the operating room. She was here to see how badly Sadie was hurt.
In her past life, Skylar had been paralyzed from the waist down because of the accident. Without her protection, she wondered what Sadie’s fate would be now.
She had to witness it with her own eyes.
“You finally made it.” Samuel sneered.
Just wait here. Sadie is still in surgery,” Jeffrey said coldly.
Skylar nodded and found a seat.
Unlike the rest of the Williams family, Skylar looked calm and composed. Her expression gave nothing away.
Maisy felt guilty and didn’t dare to stir up trouble at this moment after knowing that the video of her was in Skylar’s hands.
Peter sat down next to Skylar. He had lost much of his usual arrogance. “I’ve heard you’re quite skilled at restoring antiques. And you can even distinguish their authenticity. Is that true?”
Initially, Peter hadn’t believed the news as Skylar had never mentioned such talents,
Since Skylar had returned to the William family, they had always been indifferent and
ignored her interests.
But now Peter recalled instances when Skylar had offered advice about antiques that they had dismissed as nonsense.
Thinking about the many items they had bought things despite her suggestions, Kenny felt anxious. Could they all have been fakes?
Jeffrey narrowed his eyes as he looked at Skylar. “Is what Peter said true?”
Maisy bit her lip nervously.
“Why does it matter to you? Where was this curiosity before?” Skylar replied with a
hint of a smile.
Of all th
all the Williams family, Skylar disliked Samuel and Peter the most. Peter’s scheming nature often made him worse than Samuel.
After all, Samuel’s malice was blatant and on the surface. However, Peter was cunning, calculative, and always driven by self–interest..
“Of course it matters! I’m your brother!” Peter snapped, his tone stern.
Skylar chuckled. “My brother? A brother who tried to sell me out to some men?”
In Skylar’s previous life, Peter hadn’t even spared her a glance when she’d been paralyzed and bedridden. When he’d passed by, he’d complained about the smell, which he’d found disgusting.
Because of her paralysis, Skylar had been unable to care for herself. She’d even developed bedsores and lost control of her bodily functions.
The Williams family and even the helpers had ignored Skylar, leaving her filthy. So how could she have possibly not smelled?
Even Sadie, who was spared from the car accident, saw her as a burden. It was no surprise that everyone else did, too.
Peter frowned as his gaze turned grim.
“It’s your duty and honor to contribute to our family. After all, you’ve never done anything helpful for us. I’ve never regretted my actions, and you shouldn’t hold a grudge.”

“Don’t make it sound like you guys made huge sacrifices for me. Legally, I’m not. related to you guys, and blood ties mean little to me. You should mind your own business,” Skylar said with a cold smile.
